Nefas - Promo 2006 (self-released, 2006)

 
 Nefas - Promo 2005

Brutal death metal in the vein of Nile and Suffocation, with some references to Deeds of Flesh, is what the Italians are fervently indulging in this anything but digestible demo-sampler. Everything is here: discordant harmonics, staccato riffing, a tireless rhythm section and, of course, subsonic vocal attacks. Deliberately chaotic in delivery, Nefas are not the first of their ilk. As such, although the lads here are convincing with regards to their technical prowess, they fall short in producing something even remotely original. There are some interesting ideas, but they become buried after the continuous surge of aberrant musicianship. Production is somewhat weak, so it leaves room for improvement in their upcoming album. A quite interesting release primarily intended for brutal death metal fetishists.
